These are small chipped off portions of the die, usually where the field meets an element.
May appear as raised "blobs" or "fillings" adjoining design elements of a coin.
Also weaknesses in the design of the die, in regards to metal flow,
account for many chipped dies such as plugged dates and letters.

This page contains a partial listing of the over 1800 Die Chip varieties known to the Canadian
Error Coins website.

This list is complete in that it lists all Chipped Dies that have resulted in plugged letters or numerals, known to the Canadian Error Coins website. Also included in this list are those that have been widely advertised or are well known.

Some varieties here may have a premium value over their regular counterparts of the same date.

Values for all coins listed here may be derived from dealer advertisements, auction results, coin guides and published trends of Canadian coins. Please do not contact us regarding the value of any coin.
Please refer to your local library or bookstore.

If you have knowledge of any other Canadian coin that should be included in this list,
Please contact Patrick Glassford.
